No Bounds for the CEO’s Spoiling

“Well, if the dishes here don’t suit your taste, we can go to another restaurant…”

Gu Zijin, as a young master of the prestigious Gu family, had lived a luxurious life since his childhood. So he had already got used to eat the fine dishes. However, this restaurant didn’t provide something like the goose liver or caviar…

Gu Zijin compressed his lips lightly and said,

“I’m fine.”

Then Qin Muxuan let out a sigh of relief. In the meantime, Uncle De had already served dishes to them with a smile on his face while saying,

“Miss Qin, after so many years, you are the only return customer I have.”

“Uncle De, if the location of this restaurant is better, you’ll get a lot more customers for sure.”

Qin Muxuan said those words sincerely. Actually, all the dishes Uncle De cooked were perfect combination of color, aroma and taste, which were so much better than the ones in the popular restaurants on the street.

Qin Xiaobai took a bite of the pizza and then licked his lips, saying,

“Uncle De, this is so yummy.”

Hearing the boy’s compliments, Uncle De got very happy. Then he moved another chair over there and sat with them since today was the weekend and they were the only customers. It had been five years since Uncle De saw Qin Muxuan, so he couldn’t help but get a bit emotional. As he chatted with Qin Muxuan for a while, he started to talk about the past,

“Miss Qin, how’s Young Master Yin doing right now? During the past five years when you have disappeared, he nearly came here every weekend.”

Hearing that, Gu Zijin looked to Qin Muxuan with a gloomy look. Uncle De realized right away that he had asked a very inappropriate question, thinking, ‘Those three are clearly a family. Why did I mention Yin Youting anyway?’

Then he explained in a hurry,

“Sir, please don’t get me wrong. Young Master Yin is just a good friend of Miss Qin.”

Gu Zijin answered “um” with a cold look in his eyes.

It never occurred to Qin Muxuan that Yin Youting had come here every weekend for the past five years. She had thought that Yin Youting would forget about her and devote himself into his beloved medical career after she had concealed her identity and disappeared for five years. She had also thought that the feeling Yin Youting had for her now was merely temporary…

“Eh… He’s fine.”

“That’s good.” Uncle De said.

As a matter of fact, he had always assumed that Qin Muxuan would be with Yin Youting. Never did he expect that Qin Muxuan already had a child with the man in front of him. Nevertheless, Uncle De knew that Gu Zijin must be a successful man at first glance, so he was glad about Qin Muxuan’s good marriage.

Gu Zijin looked at Qin Muxuan with a meaningful look while thinking, ‘Now that you know how infatuated your ex is with you, are you regretting about the night five years ago? Even though you are with me now, you still act as if you are walking on thin ice.’ Qin Muxuan sensed Gu Zijin’s unhappiness and then cut a slice of steak for him, saying,

“The fried steak Uncle De made is very delicious. Have a try.”

Gu Zijin’s look softened a little and he bit the steak right away. Qin Xiaobai was very unsatisfied to see that and murmured,

“Dabai, now you don’t even give me the first slice you cut. Am I still your little boy?”

Qin Muxuan was amused by Qin Xiaobai’s words, so she cut another slice for him to comfort the boy. Seeing the happy atmosphere in the family, Uncle De was very glad. Five years ago, even an old man like him heard of the news about the Qin family, and he had never seen Qin Muxuan ever since then. He did have seen Yin Youting very often, but that man always wore a sad look every time he came to this restaurant.

After they finished lunch, Xiaobai wanted to bring a pack of cheese curl back, so he just sat on the chair and waited for Uncle Chen to cook it for him. As Qin Muxuan saw Gu Zijin walking out of the restaurant, she remembered something right away and said,

“Xiaobai, wait for me in the car after you get your cheese curl.”

Qin Xiaobai nodded in a trance. Then Qin Muxuan stood up and walked outside. Gu Zijin was standing in the narrow and long corridor with a cigarette between his fingers while looking at the view outside the balcony. Actually, the place he was looking at was the residential area with no nice view at all. After Qin Muxuan had walked toward him, she actually wanted to snatch away his cigarette. However, Gu Zijin dragged her into his arms and pushed her against the wall of the balcony.

“Gu Zijin, you… let go of me!”

Qin Muxuan was afraid that Qin Xiaobai would misunderstand them if he saw them being like this. However, Gu Zijin had no intention to let her go and only approached her ears and said in his magnetic voice,

“Qin Muxuan, how many stories do you and Yin Youting have? Do you miss him so much that you have to bring us to the restaurant where you two loved to go?”

Qin Muxuan, with the look on her face turning stiff, replied with an annoyed look,

“Gu Zijin, I don’t! I just suggested coming because this restaurant is not so popular but the dishes here are delicious. I wanted to bring Xiaobai here to have a try.”

“Huh, really?”

Gu Zijin put his hand on Qin Muxuan’s waist and pushed her closer to him. Then, he lowered his head and kissed Qin Muxuan’s lips lovingly. As Qin Muxuan smelled the light scent of the cigarette, she heard Gu Zijin’s cold voice by her ear,

“Has he kissed you before? Has he held you in his arms?”

Qin Muxuan gritted her teeth in anger. ‘You’ve already taken away my virginity five years ago! How dare you ask me that? ‘ Seeing the angry look on Qin Muxuan’s face, Gu Zijin suddenly heard a flat voice echoing in his head, ‘Even if they have kissed and hugged, her body already belonged to me five years ago.’

Meanwhile, Qin Muxuan only felt herself filled with fury. However, when she raised her head and saw Gu Zijin’s eyes, she got dazed right away, because she seemed to have seen tenderness crossing his cold eyes. Tenderness? She was shocked to see that kind of look in this cold-blooded man’s eyes. However, the tenderness in his eyes disappeared so fast that she even thought that it was just her delusion.

Gu Zijin let go of Qin Muxuan and threw the cigarette in the trash can, saying,

“Let’s go.”Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

When Qin Xiaobai brought the cheese curl out, he didn’t see anyone in the corridor, so he walked downstairs straightly. After he got into the car, he saw Qin Muxuan already sitting on the back seat with her face a bit pale. Then he approached her with the bag of cheese curl in his arms and said,

“Dabai, are you angry with me because I let you wait for too long?”

The moment Qin Muxuan saw Qin Xiaobai’s innocent face, she felt her anger just vanished in an instant. Then she rubbed Qin Xiaobai’s head and said,

“Of course not. The sun is blazing hot today, I just feel the weather a bit muggy.”

“Oh, I see, daddy, why didn’t you turn on the air conditioner?”

Qin Xiaobai blamed everything on Gu Zijin right away and then approached Qin Muxuan while leaning his face against her arm, saying,

“Mommy, I’ll take a nap now. Don’t forget to wake me up when we arrive.”

“All right.”

As Gu Zijin saw the sweet interaction between the mother and son, the coldness in his eyes finally disappeared. He didn’t care about Qin Muxuan’s past, but he had to make sure that he knew everything about her current life and her future.

Thinking of that, he started the engine and drove back home. Qin Muxuan was thinking about helping boost Uncle De’s business, so she posted the photo of Qin Xiaobai eating the pizza on Weibo and indicated the location. In no time, lots of people commented under her post that they would go to Uncle De’s restaurant. Qin Muxuan was glad that she could be of some help for Uncle De.
